Distinctive and appealing, this is one-stop shopping for delicious writing across different media forms." --Charlotte Grimes, Syracuse University, "Reading the anthology under review is a learning experience; at least it is for those still taking journalism very seriously and potentially to news workers the globe over. In today's multi-channel media environment, governed by new media and web blogs, we constantly rely on enterprises such as this, to illuminate the as yet reassuring boundaries between news and entertainment media."-- Adriana Neagu, American British and Canadian Studies, Reading the anthology under review is a learning experience; at least it is for those still taking journalism very seriously and potentially to news workers the globe over.
